Talk:Bit packets

RakNet

The RakNet library handles bitwise packets automatically, and by default (through 'bitstreams', to which you can add anything from single bits to custom structs and they are all sent down the pipe as efficiently as possible). Perhaps this should be mentioned in the article somewhere. I'm only saying this because I'm currently working with and learning RakNet, and absolutely loving it, so any opportunity I get, I will be sure to point it out. Sorry if I sound like a fanboy or marketing guy! Anyway, I'm not sure where to put it myself (and I would rather stay out of the author's way), so someone else feel free to add it somewhere if you feel so inclined, else just delete this comment! :) Ricket 23:56, 28 February 2008 (EST)

• Nope, you are very right and it is definitely worth mentioning! The lidgren network library also has an open-source bitstream and theres a few open source bitstreams you can find out there. The idea behind this was more of the understanding of how it all works more than how to make your own. I spent quite a lot of time writing my own high performing bitstream in C# and it sure was a lot of work and not worth making your own if you can avoid it. ;) But thank you again for bringing that up, I will be sure to mention it along with any other good quality bitstream I can find when I get to that point. :) --Spodi 04:00, 29 February 2008 (EST)
